Succeeding Is Where I Want To Be
Look into my eyes,
And you see I am more ready,
Than I’ll ever be,
I have what I need,
Yeah you can’t touch me,
I’m on the rise,
One of your best prize,
On my way to the top,
Somewhere you’re not,
Don’t get mad that I’m hot,
Plus everything I got,
You want to get where I am,
You have to want it to the end,
Cuz nothing is ever easy,
When you want to win,
There is more to what you see,
And even more to what I can be,
Don’t finish half way,
That not how I play,
I complete what I start,

A friend like you
when we talk,
my problems melt away,
you take me back,
to the times we were kids,
do you know how happy i was than?
i had a mother,
and you as my best friend,
what more could i ask for?
everything i wanted,
was right in front of me,
and i took it for granted,
now i'm thinking back,
to a life wasn't so bad,
until you walked into my life,
it was gray,
wondering if i should live another day,
i got my smile back,
and gaining back my confidence,
cuz i have a friend like you,
true friends are hard to find,

Walk In My Shoes
you call me a freakin liar,
that's okay,
do you know what i go through?
just to seem fine,
behind my smile,
there's fire,
sick of this world,
tired of lables that seem to be me,
do you know how hard it is?
to make everyday as normal as possible,
every time i show how i feel,
it gets send off wrong,
i know i don't always make sense,
but, in my mind it does,
you don't need the facts,
exspecially if you judging,
i just want to be me,
but, i guess i lie,
say what you may,
i don't care,

Don't Worry
my secerts are coming out,
every lie gets bigger and bigger,
afraid of what people might find,
scares me to death,
i want one thing,
but what i want,
is not agreeable,
to die and ease the pain,
would you agree?
life gets hard take the easy way out.
wouldn't you do the same?
call me crazy,
you don't know me,
or what i go through,
it my choice,
to choose what i want,
back off,
i know what i want,
don't stop me,
i just want to go,

The Unexplained
why do we lose,
the people who not meant to go?
will we ever get an answer?
we want people to live life with us,
but with in time,
it will be cut short for some,
life is unexpected,
you never know what will happen,
but, even though they are gone,
they watch over us,
they are our angels,
helping us through when times get rough,
god has a plan for them,
to take away there pain,
but, what he gives you in return is powerful,
it's a whole new look on life,
it's to grow to the person he wants you to be,
losing a friend or family is not the end of the world,
but only a journey to this place called life.

I can't seem to be honest
yeah, i want to be honest,
yeah, we told each other everything,
i just can't seem to be honest,
when how i feel,
is more than a friend level,
i want there to be more between us,
i feel the connection when we talk,
i just can't handle,
that i'm not your girl,
i'm an emotional chick,
most guys don't know,
i may come off as strong,
but, that only because people don't know me,
now there not a thing i hide,
about the way i feel about you,
i guess in a way,
i feel so much better,
i no longer have to watch what i say,
there really are no secerts between us,
i just don't know why i seen it as a bad thing.

People Expect Too Much From Me
aug,11,2010
people expect me to be perfect,
because i'm smart,
people expect me to get good grades,
because of all the hard work i put in,
people expect me to have my own business,
because i can be talented and creative,
people expect me to be a push over,
rather than a girl who speaks her mind,
people expect me to be something i'm not,
but all i can be is only myself,
people expect me to deal with life,
i can only deal with it the best i can,
people expect me to handle more than i can,
but who is it really for or what do i have to prove?
people expect me to be who they want,
but did they ever stop to think of what i wanted?

Enough Is Enough
i let you get to me,
well guess what?
my fault,
but, enough is enough,
wouldn't you say?
i sick of feeling worthless,
because of what you do,
i can't believe you won,
i lost my confidences,
it won't happen again,
you know why?
i know when i had enough,
enough of you games,
that seem to make you happy,
where do that leave me?
making me question my existance?
which would make you happy?
because no matter what,
i'm not going anywhere,
this is my life,

Fighting Through Life
losing patience with life,
can't handle things that are not working,
feeling frustrated every step of the way,
how do you deal?
when stuff not going your way?
i would say life just $uck$,
but that would be too easy,
life is hard,
i'm tiried of fighting through it,
it's a uphill battle,
that i seem to be losing,
don't know why?
maybe because along the way,
i gave up a fight,
i want nothing to do with,
would you agree?
life is never what it seems,
i guess only in dreams,
but fighting for what you want,
is just not that easy,

I'm In Enough Pain, Don't Use Me To Make Your Life Interesting
do you care about me,
or do you need drama?
what i share is hard enough as is,
i need trust and support,
what i have been through is hard enough,
i doubt myself everyday,
i often question 'who am i? '
for what to hear that i was right,
that i'm worthless?
i need support,
not be an excuse for work,
or talk around friends,
in my mind, i am not suppose to talk,
i still feel like that kid,
trying to get help,
but instead i'm afraid,
of not being believed,
and yet, i live with this nightmare,
day after day,
hoping that one day,
